Speed of site

[gquiring]

I really like the content of MacRumors but the site speed is fairly slow. I use many other forum sites and I have no issues with speed. My internet is FIOS with a 35/35 plan.

What I am curious about is the speed issue CPU or internet bandwidth? At times I can click a topic and it comes up in 2-3 seconds. A few seconds later another topic can take 6-7 seconds to load.

I don't know the CPU or bandwidth specs but I know that the response time experienced by our site visitors can vary depending on a number of factors: the number of visitors we have at a given moment, our bandwidth, the throughput along the network path from our site to the visitor, and unfortunately delays sometimes caused by the servers of our ad services.

I find it is just as fast as other mac forum sites.
